Price Check Branson 3510i Price Info

[redfoxco]

Hi - I'm new to the forum. Been lurking all morning and have found some great info. I have 10 acres which I purchased about 2 years ago and I have been renting equipment thus far. I'm sick of dropping $2k/year renting poorly maintained equipment and since I have lots of work to do this spring and summer, I'm looking to purchase something soon. I can (barely) afford to purchase a decent, new tractor this year. The *barely* part pretty much rules out the big three manufacturers. Branson's looking pretty good as far as bang-for-the-buck and local dealer support is concerned, plus I'm a big fan of Cummins engines. The tractor will be used for rough-cut mowing 10 acres, driveway maintenance, light-to-moderate farming and dirt work, post-hole digging, hay stacking, manure spreading, etc.

Ok, so here's my question: Has anyone purchased a Branson 3510i w/ FEL in the past 6 months, and if so, what did you pay? I have a quote from a local dealer, but I'd like to know how it fits in with what the rest of you have seen.

Thanks!

Hey redfox where are you from? That will also help out in telling you if you are getting a good price.

I'm in the Denver metro area. Dealer quoted me $17,900 for the 3510i + loader + 6' mower.

Sounds right on the money.

Now Rick, If your planning another road trip West to deliver a new Branson, you can pick me up on the way. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Redfoxco,
I'm also a new guy to forum and also in Southern Colorado. I just purchased mine from a dealer in Trinidad and I live in Aguilar. Here's ballpark figures for my 3820 Branson i bought last month.
Tractor $13,700.00
Loader $2700.00
Backhoe $5000.00
So, if you take the tractor and loader, mine would come to $16,400.00 without the Brush cutter.
I only have 14 hrs on it but this thing handles like a dream!
Hope this helps.
Steve

Steve at those prices quotes he is giving it away well below cost.

The dealer told me that he sells a lot of them by keeping the price low. He told my wife and I that he sells the tractors for cost + $800.00.

I see looking back at my paper work I stand corrected. These quotes were from a different model I guess. (Looked at to many tractors.)
I have my paper work in front of me.
3820 Tractor $15,000.00
Canopy $345.00
Pallet Fork $ 675.00
8620 Backhoe $5750.00
Bl20 Loader $3,295.00

Sorry for the wrong info.....thanks Shifty, I stand corrected.
I'm thinking that was quoted for a used 4220 with just 70 hours a guy traded in, bit not sure. These prices are on the contract.

Thanks for the info. Sounds like you got a pretty good deal on your 3820. I just put a deposit down on the 3510i this afternoon! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
